Commercial Description:
When the loveable "hopheads" at Humpy's Great Alaskan Alehouse requested a winter version of alehouse favorite Sockeye Red IPA, our brewers instinctively spawned CoHoHo Imperial IPA. CoHoHo begins with generous measures of pale two-row and specialty malts along with spirit-boosters like maple syrup, brown sugar and honey. Hefty doses of Cascade, Centennial and Simcoe hops beautifully balance that outrageous malt bill and heighten the festive character of this exuberant beer. Whatever the celebration, make merry with CoHoHo Imperial IPA.

massivly hoppy. Lots of grapefruit and other citrus notes in the arom and taste. There is a bit of a sweet side o it, which made this a nice and complex IPA. Lingering bitter finish.

Apple and hop aroma. Hazy, copper color, off-white head, very nice lace. Sweet, first quite neutral but soon rather hoppy, bitter and fruity. Dry finish. Thank you hopscotch for sending me this beer.

(Dutch ratebeermeeting) Sweetish smell of cascade hops and fruit (apple). Clear, amber/copper coloured with an off-white, lasting head. Taste of much cascade hops, bitterness, sweetness and some fruit. Quite dry brew. Nice.

Amber color, firm head. Hoppy blackcurrant aroma and flavor. Has some fruity sweetness. Grapes. Somewhat alcoholic, but that is still pretty well hidden. Dry out effect in the mouth. Solid beer with a good taste.

Tasty but this isn’t much of a Double IPA. Chestnut. Aroma of pine, pineapple, smoked wood and roasted malts, mainly caramel but also a hint of molasses. Where are the hops in this? This is entirely too malty for a a DIPA. Flavor mainly consists of hops oils, pine needles, apricots, pineapples and lemon. The malt backbone is nice but if I want a nice malt backbone, I’ll snag an English barley wine.
